  • wgo: a live reload tool for Go
    4 projects | /r/golang | 29 Jan 2023
    wgo is simpler, simply prepend 'w' to any go run command to make it wgo run and now it does the same thing as go run but it also reloads the program whenever a Go file changes. Also takes in the same build flags as go run. Very intuitive to use.
